Pandora's Post by B. K. McSwain Lillian couldn't believe how out of hand everything had become after her innocuous post; it was only supposed to entertain her friends. After all, Skye was an incredible singer/songwriter, and Lillian only wanted her friends to know, but now, Skye was not talking to her, and she was in danger of losing her new best friend. It all started three weeks ago when Lillian was at Skye's house and Skye mentioned she played the guitar. "How have we been friends for so long, and I never knew you played?" Lillian asked. "Six months is not that long, but it does seem like we've known each other for years," Skye admitted, strumming the guitar. Then she began a melody that captivated Lillian and when she began singing, Lillian couldn't believe her friend was so talented. She fumbled with her phone until she had accessed the video camera and began recording the impromptu performance. "This is so going up on my page!" Lillian announced and before Skye could protest the song was posted to her social media page, and before Skye could insist she take it down, it had 15 "likes." Lillian convinced her friend to let it stay, and they would've forgotten all about it had it not gone viral. Now, Skye was fielding calls from all over the country from music producers wanting her to record with them. The producer of a morning show had invited her to perform on live TV, and local news people were camped in her yard. Not only had Lillian not known about her friend's talent, but she had not known about her friend's modesty that bordered on diffidence, and this deplorable lack of self-confidence had caused Skye to become a hermit in her house trying to avoid the publicity Select the correct answer from the drop-down menu.
